Jordan 9 Retro DB Doernbecher Special Collaboration

The original Air Jordan 9 was released in November 1993, roughly one month after MJ announced his retirement from basketball. The retail price in the US was $125. The first Air Jordan 9 retro release took place in 2002 and included the first low-top version of the AJ 9. Additional retro releases followed every two years beginning in 2008, then annually starting in 2015 though the present day. In 2016, Nike released the Air Jordan 9 OG, which included the Space Jam model that celebrated the movie's 20th anniversary. Nike continues to announce more retro releases for the future.

History of Air Jordan 9

In 1993, the Air Jordan 9 hit the court for the first time, though Michael Jordan never scored a single point with the Chicago Bulls wearing the shoe. When Jordan surprised the world with news of his retirement on October 6, 1993, the AJ 9 was already in production. Nike had no choice but to move forward with the release even though the most famous feet in basketball had seemingly left the court forever.

Air Jordan Retro DB Doernbecher high-tops were designed by Oswaldo Jiminez when he was 11. His name appears on the pull loops on the back of the collar that attaches to a gold "Jumpman" logo. A thin gold on black feather pattern wraps around the shoes from the collar, down the heel, across the length of the body, and around the toe. Large white side panels with various air hole sections fill out the upper's half of the body. The Air Jordan 9 Retro was a collaboration with Doernbecher children’s hospital. These kicks hit the shelves on November 30, 2012.
